Best to have a month to month lease or one with a start and end date if you want them to leave on a specific date, that lets you move to eviction if they don't pay.

I am new to this so I am running out of ideas but in reality to start living together we need a 4 bd house for our 3 kids and a bunch of pets so we know it would be a house around $800K until we can make more money from our jobs and side hustles.

But, to start with, my first course of action shall be to partner in a house hack type deal.

I am nervous that starting eviction for nonpayment would drag out her leaving and end up costing me more money in the long run. 

I don't know how much your loans are but you will need dollar for dollar in income just to get back to zero starting point with installment loans, i.e. if your monthly income is $3k and your loans are $1k you're going to be starting from a point of $2k income before any other expenses.

Because I already owned properties in Latin America and Europe, I started to answer these questions as my contribution to BiggerPockets and the forum.There used to be an international sub-forum and I was the main contributor, reason why I was invited a few years back to attend a call with CEO Scott Trench and the other top sub-forum contributors to give our advice on the last changes in the forums.
